Rollout of the New Generation
"Soft Termination MLCC" Series for Automotive Grade
As the automotive transition toward CASE drives the need for highly reliable Electronic Control Units (ECUs), and amid surging silver prices, a new multilayer ceramic capacitor series featuring a new soft termination material. The series is available in a wide lineup from the 1005 size (1.0 x 0.5 mm) to the 3225 size (3.2 x 2.5 mm).
The Growing Need for Soft Termination MLCC
Larger ECU boards and high-density mounting in modern vehicles require robust countermeasures against "board flexure stress" caused by vibration and shock. Additionally, compliance with stringent proprietary reliability standards from global automakers is now essential..
Technological Innovation: Adoption of "Low-Silver Filler"
Unlike conventional products, our newly adopted "low-silver filler" minimizes silver usage to stabilize material costs. It maintains the essential polymer flexibility for stress absorption while achieving high reliability that surpasses conventional soft termination MLCCs.
Rollout to Automotive Grade and VW 80808 Certification
Rolled out for critical automotive applications including powertrains and safety systems, this series has acquired Volkswagen's stringent "VW 80808" certification. It demonstrates exceptional durability in harsh environments, guaranteeing up to 5mm of board flexure resistance and excellent migration resistance.
